ALSO Heacham Carnival 4th August 2024 It has been agreed by the Parish Council that Heacham Parish Church Coronation Bell is the charity that money collected is going to So we need lots of volunteers to walk with buckets (or whizz in mobility scooters!) collecting money as part of the parade. Please let one of the wardens know if you can do this - the more the merrier!
Are you creative and good at designing and making displays? We need someone or a small team to put together the many photos of the building of the cupola and the casting of the bell, for a display in the chancel for the September celebrations and to be in church for some time afterwards, with photos added of that event too. Please let Veronica know if you would like to be involved?
